Moong Soup - #6145
I’ve been feeling bloated and heavy lately, so a friend suggested I try moong soup as a light and healthy option. I made it yesterday with some spices like cumin and turmeric, and it was delicious, but I don’t know if I made it the right way for the full benefits. Is there a specific Ayurvedic recipe for moong soup that works best for balancing digestion? I’ve heard that moong soup is good for all three doshas, but I don’t know how true that is. I have a Kapha imbalance (at least I think so based on the symptoms like lethargy and weight gain). Does moong soup really help with Kapha, or is it better suited for another dosha? Also, is it okay to eat moong soup every day, or is it something I should only have occasionally? I’m worried about eating the same thing too often and whether it could cause any issues. I’m also curious about what to pair with it. Can I eat rice or bread alongside moong soup, or would that be too heavy? Is it best to have it as a stand-alone dish? Finally, if I want to improve digestion, how should I time my meals with moong soup? Is it best for lunch or dinner? I’ve noticed that my digestion is worse in the evening, so I’m wondering if moong soup would help at that time. Would love some tips on how to make the most of this dish!
